When It Comes My Turn - David Myles

I’m getting old but I’m not old yet

I’m already worried that I might forget

How to laugh, how to love

How to live, how to learn

I want to die with a smile when it comes my turn

I don’t want to get weary, don’t want to get bored

Don’t want to get tired, walking down this road

I’ve seen that happen so many times

I just want to believe that its still worth trying

But I know that it’s easier said than done

And I ain’t that different from anyone

I worry about my money, got bills that I can’t pay

I swear I’m more like my father everyday

Maybe I’ll start bowling, maybe I’ll play bridge

Maybe I’ll join a band with my own grandkids

I don’t care if it kills me I’m gonna do what it takes

To keep some warmth in my heart and a smile on my face
